第一節(jié)（共 15 小題；每小題 2.5 分，滿分 37.5 分） ·
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的 A、B、C 和 D 四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
A
Digital financial services company Remitly recently determined the world’s friendliest nations in a new report. The company surveyed 3,000 participants from 27 countries on their “agreeableness” from the popular Big 5
Personality Test in April. Participants took a simplified version of the test’s “agreeableness” section and were given a score between 1 and 40, with a higher score meaning they were more agreeable. The scores of each country’s
residents were averaged, and the higher the average, the friendlier the country.
Estonia, 32.58
Estonia is ranked as one of the friendliest countries to travelers. Home to two UNESCO World Heritage Sites and more than 1,000 islands, Estonia has friendly locals who are known to be respectful and polite to foreigners. A 2019
survey of almost 14,000 Estonians found that most residents prioritize safety and openness.
Belgium, 32.5
As a western European country at only 30,528 square kilometers, Belgium is known for its rich cultural heritage and diverse attractions. The European nation not only has progressive social policies and low crime rates, but English is easily spoken, which makes it easy to meet locals. Belgians are known to be polite and social, so you can feel
comfortable asking locals for directions.
Germany, 32.66
Germany is traversed by some of Europe’s major rivers such as the Rhine and Danube. Thanks to its central
situation Germany has more neighbors than any other European country. There’s a lot of history and culture to
uncover in Germany, and its friendly residents help make it a popular European destination. Germans aren’t known
for engaging in small talk but will help you out if you’re in need.
South Africa, 34.63
South Africa is also known as the “Rainbow Nation”. Since the air is fresh and the sunshine is in abundant
supply, rainbows often appear after the rain. But the most important reason is its multi-culture, with white, black,
yellow, varicolored people contributing to a unique landscape of South Africa. Eleven official languages are spoken in the African country. South Africans are known to be friendly and travelers can expect to encounter many locals saying hello and striking up conversations.
21. Which of the four countries is the friendliest
A. Estonia. B. Belgium. C. Germany. D. South Africa.
22. What do Belgium and Germany have in common
A. Large land areas. B. Bad small talkers.
C. The history worth exploring. D. The number of neighbors.

Nancy Jenkins is a 68-year-old teacher from North Carolina. On her last day as a teacher, she was expecting a
small celebratory meal with her close family. But instead, she gets a huge surprise! She opens the door to a surprise
that brings tears of joy. The room is packed with 40 guests, including her family, friends, and the people she worked with.
Nancy Jenkins has been teaching for 42 years, spending 37 of those years in special education, often in an
intensive behavioral classroom at Winter Park Elementary School in Wilmington. Despite the challenges, her love for her students never changed. She used many creative and interesting activities to help her students learn. She says these activities are some of the ones that she and her students enjoyed most. She also worked closely with parents,
caregivers, and other professionals to create a supportive and inclusive environment for the children, maximizing the potential for success and well-being for each child under her care.
Nancy’s daughter, Maggie Marsh, highlighted her mom’s compassion and positivity. “She is known as someone
who would not only do anything to help a coworker or student in time of need, but she would also do anything just to
make them laugh or smile.” Inspired by Nancy’s commitment, Maggie organized the celebration not only for her mom’ s retirement but also to honor her impactful career as an educator. “After 42 years of selflessly putting others before
herself and stepping in to help wherever assistance was needed, my mom was more than deserving of this celebration, and she is more than deserving of this retirement,” says Maggie.
For Nancy, she was just doing what she loved. “I love teaching and it’s never boring,” she says. “Every day is different.” Despite her retirement, Nancy Jenkins will offer her help to children in need any time. Nancy says people who want to be teachers should make sure they are patient with their students. She also encourages them to choose subjects that they care deeply about. “Keep working on what you love to do in life,” she says.
24. What can be learned about Nancy Jenkins
A. She felt sad on her last day as a teacher.
B. She couldn’t wait to meet her guests after work.

The Anxious Generation （ 2024 ）, by psychologist Jonathan Haidt, argues that excessive smartphone and social media use is rewiring the brains of children and adolescents, replacing essential playtime and contributing to rising
mental health issues. It leapt to the top of the bestseller list when it was released a year ago and has sat there ever since. However, whether the phone is to blame for teens’ mental illness is under heated debate.
Many scientists say the impacts of smartphones and social media depend on the individual, their family and other circumstances, and what they are doing online. Until 2016, the American Academy of Pediatrics （ AAP ）, had “two by two” guidelines: no screens for children under two, and no more than two hours of screen time per day for older
kids. But with smartphones replacing TVs and new research emerging, the AAP now encourages flexible,
family-specific plans. The message nowadays is that families should have a conversation about what works best for them, considering their children, values and routines.
It’s unclear in some studies, says Radesky, who is one of two medical directors of the academy’s specialist centre on social media and youth health, which comes first: whether social media causes depression, for instance, or whether young people who are depressed are more likely to spend time on social media. “We might have the arrow pointing in the wrong direction,” Radesky says.
To resolve the scientific debate, Haidt says he would like to see larger experimental studies, such as ones in
which entire schools that go phone-free are compared with control schools. But the trouble is that technology is
already moving on. Surveys show that US teenagers are increasingly using online artificial-intelligence tools, such as chatbots, which is why Odger, the other medical director of the AAP centre, wants to see researchers collect data now on how young people are using this technology. “The crucial thing is that we should learn from this problem that we didn’t have the right evidence at the right time,” he says. “We need to learn for the next technology.”
28. Why did the AAP abandon its “two by two” guidelines
A. They were outdated and inflexible. B. Children needed more screen time.
C. They were too difficult for families to follow. D. Parents demanded more freedom to set their own rules.
29. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A. The purpose of some studies is unknown.
B. The focus of some studies is on the wrong issues.
C. The conclusions drawn from some studies may be incorrect.
D. The ways of data-collection in some studies may be inappropriate. 30. What does Odger imply about future technologies like AI chatbots A. People should learn to use them for their benefit.
B. They are less harmful than social media platforms.
C. They will solve the mental health crisis caused by smartphones.
D. Researchers need to study their impact on youth before it’s too late.
31. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text A. To call for the development of new technology. B. To give an account of a debate among scientists.
C. To introduce a book on the impact of technology on kids.
D. To offer advice on how to regulate children’s screen time.
D
For as long as humans have been monitoring the ocean, the only way we’ve known about stranded （擱淺的） whales was to come across them ourselves. But knowing about stranded whales- including where and when they
strand- is important.
Largely due to human causes such as ship strikes and pollution, whale strandings are on the rise. Their
occurrence can often signal that something is wrong before larger ecosystem problems arise. Yet the ground-based networks used to monitor stranded whales are just available for wealthy countries.
A new study conducted by Penny Clarke, a graduate student with the British Antarctic Survey, shows that very
high resolution （ VHR ） satellite imagery makes it possible to spot stranded whales in remote areas where it may оthеr w е tаkе wееk tо f nd thеm. Ву thаt ро nt, аn mаl аrе оftеn lоng dесоmро еd （腐爛的 ）, mаk ng t tоо lаtе to figure out what caused the stranding or take action to fix it.
The first satellite with VHR sensors was launched in 1999. With the number of them now slowly climbing,
Clarke’s team sees this sort of imagery as a tool that allows less-wealthy countries to monitor a vast area with just a
few people. However, the satellite approach does have some limitations. As Clarke found, images may not be
available for the date range researchers want; there are currently 27 VHR satellites circling Earth. Moreover, satellites only take photos when given orders to open their lenses. Tasking a satellite is expensive, and even accessing archived （存檔的） images can come with a big price tag.
Additionally, identifying whales requires manually scanning for the right shapes, frame（幀）by frame. In 2019, a team led by Clarke’s co-author, Peter Fretwell, tried to automate this process. They found that because dead whales change so drastically as they decompose, their way wasn’t very accurate. It often confused whales with features like
rocks or washed-up trees.
Next up, Clarke hopes to test the effectiveness of satellite monitoring by working on the round with experts
during stranding events so that she can see for herself what satellite imagery misses. “We don’t know enough about
some of these challenges we’ re going to be coming up against,” she says. Yet the potential for this technology excites her immensely. “It’s quite literally out of this world.”
32. What is the significance of discovering whale strandings in time
A. To help control the whale population.
B. To send the stranded whales to the ocean. C. To guard against bigger ecosystem risks.
D. To reduce dead whales’ influence on ecosystems. 33. What does Clarke say about satellite monitoring A. It can only be operated at a high cost.
B. It is expected to perform various tasks.
C. It poses challenges to wealthy countries.
D. Less-wealthy countries can hardly afford it.
34. What did Peter Fretwell try to do in 2019
A. To call on local people to help recognize dead whales. B. To find a better way to examine dead whales in detail.
C. To make the process of recognizing dead whales more efficient .
D. To record the changes in dead whales with advanced technology.
35. What’s Clark’s attitude towards the future of satellite monitoring
A. Worried. B. Hopeful. C. Cautious. D. Indifferent.

Harry Caine retired from a local power company. After his retirement, he just wanted to do something for his community. One day, he spotted many abandoned bikes, which were gathering dust in the neighbouring garages. “Why not fix them up and give them to those needy ” he thought. So he posted to an online group in his Alaska
Homer, offering to fix people’s bikes for free.
Soon some neighbors began to donate their abandoned bikes after their kids had outgrown them or adults had
upgraded to new models. Then, in Harry’s tidy little garage, he set about working. Its inner walls lined with tools, the
garage held a workbench and repair stand. Classic rock music often drifted from its open doors, a sign that Harry was
working hard. After Harry’s highly skilled repairs, the donated bikes took on new looks and functioned very well.
One Saturday, Harry transported the first batch of six repaired bikes to a nearby food bank, a place that gave food to the poor. He camped out with his Free Bikes sign and waited to see whether the bikes were needed. Five minutes
later, a little boy wearing worn-out clothes came up to Harry with a doubtful look, his eyes glued to a blue bike, “Is it really free ” the boy asked. “Yes. If you like it, it’s yours.” Harry answered joyfully. The boy beamed abroad smile. He briskly walked towards the blue bicycle. Then he touched its handle, pressed its bell, and explained how he had
dreamed of owning one bicycle. Grinning with delight, Harry watched him pedal away and disappear in the distance. The following 30 minutes saw the remaining bikes ridden away, which gave him a sense of satisfaction.
As word of Harry’s project spread, neighbors admirably called him Uncle Harry, and they kept him busy with a steady supply of bikes, helmets and even locks. However, with more abandoned bikes flooding in, Harry had his
hands full and the repairing work was more than he could deal with. 注意：（ 1 ）續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為 150 左右；

Paragraph 1:
Knowing Harry’s situation, a group of volunteers came to help him.

第一節(jié)
Possible version 1:
Celebrating the Glory of Labor
Wu Jiuyuan, a volunteer teacher from Jian’ge County, Sichuan Province, has become a symbol of educational perseverance in China's remote Yi ethnic regions.
As the leader of an education-aid team in remote Yi ethnic areas, Mr. Wu has devoted 8 years to improving
educational conditions for children in the poor areas. Besides, he has developed interactive methods such as English songs, role-play activities, and cultural storytelling to enhance engagement-a strategy highlighted in rural education case studies.
His story teaches me that true beauty lies in selfless dedication rather than appearance. Though not all of us can become volunteer teachers, we can shine in our own positions through wholehearted commitment.
Possible version 2:
Celebrating the Glory of Labor
Wang Jin, a renowned clock-restoration master at Beijing's Palace Museum, has dedicated his life to reviving the exquisite timepieces of China's imperial past.
Following in his father's footsteps, Wang Jin represents the third generation of his family to work at the Palace
Museum. As a key figure in the museum's conservation team, he specializes in repairing and preserving the museum's world-class collection of over 1,000 antique clocks, many of which date back to the Qing Dynasty. By restoring these clocks, Wang Jin connects modern audiences to the ingenuity of ancient artisans.
Wang Jin's work transcends mere restoration; it is an act of cultural preservation. His humility and quiet
perseverance— often laboring for months on a single clock—teach us the value of patience, heritage, and excellence.
第二節(jié)
One possible version:
Knowing Harry's situation,a group of volunteers came to help him. They came from all walks of life - students, retirees and even some stay-at-home parents, each eager to lend a hand. They selflessly devoted their time, skills, and
knowledge to tackling piles of the donated bikes. Together, they sorted the bikes by size and condition before the
repairs. Harry's garage came alive with energy, filled with laughter and lively conversations as the volunteers worked side by side. With volunteers’ support, Harry was determined to expand the project to more people. And he thought it was necessary to offer each of them a right bike.
To match each bike with its new owner, Harry gathered their specific needs. Along with the volunteers, Harry
carefully took into account individual preferences, such as bike styles, colors, and sizes, as well as ages, addresses and occupations. With the valuable information, every bike was perfectly tailored to meet the recipients’ needs. Once the bikes were fully repaired, they delivered each bike in person to the recipients’ home, ensuring it was an ideal fit. The recipients were overjoyed, expressing their heartfelt gratitude for the thoughtful gesture. This personalized approach
not only warmed their hearts but also strengthened community bonds, fostering a deeper sense of belonging and connecting.

And now some news for nature lovers. The National Telephone Company has started knocking down the big
phone tower on Watson Road.（ 18 ） But the tower was built only two years ago and had major repairs carried out on it a year ago. So why is it being removed （ 18 ） Because of bats. As you know, bats are almost blind but they are guided by signals. Scientists found that the signals from the phone tower were affecting the signals of some very rare bats that live in the area, causing them to get lost and sometimes die. （ 19 ） At first, it was thought the color or the height of the tower was to blame for the bat deaths. When the problem with signals was discovered, the phone
company agreed to knock the tower down and move it one kilometer away, where there are no bats. Then the animals will be out of danger as a danger and we can all make phone calls with clear conscience.（ 20 ）
